I am looking for suggestions as to what the casue can be. The software runs
on a development machine, and in the Delphi designer we have no problems
connecting to the session with the same name.

What is the exact error message that you're seeing ?

We seem to be stuck. Two development computers, one running (1) EDB manager,
(2) Delphi designer, and (3) an EDB application, all running fine. The
other, running (1) EDB manager, (2) Delphi just fine, but not our EDB
application. We checked everything, all using the same CFG, data, and source
code. Compared screen shots of the manager running on both machines.

Still the second computer crashes when our app connects the session. No idea
what to check next.

And here is the exact error message: ElevateDB Error #406 Invalid role
identifier 'efault.

Note the 'efault, with apparently some missing 'd'.

Roy,

So, you're getting this error message in addition to the first message ?  Or
are these separate issues ?

Are you referring to any roles during the BeforeConnect or AfterConnect
event handler for the session ?

Also, the EDB Manager can open the same configuration file with no problem ?

This is the only message, happening when we open some table, which in turn
connects the session.

The same CFG file opens fine in EDB Manager. We thought there might be some
corruption, so we also recreated the whole thing from scratch. Exactly the
same problem. All still on 1.04, Build 5. Should we upgrade first?

The originally mentioned message (session name not valid) shows up later, in
some cleaning up Finally-End. So, it is not really relevant. We could do a
BeamYourScreen, and show you some stepping ...

Roy,

<< The same CFG file opens fine in EDB Manager. >>

Okay.  What happens when you try to open the same table in the EDB manager
as you're trying to open in your application ?

It opens just fine. Same in Delphi, for example in the Fields Editor. On a
second computer, the application also works just fine.
